Description
- The invention relates to a liquid electrolyte for a lithium battery comprising a lithium salt dissolved in a quaternary mixture of non-aqueous organic solvents.
- In general manner, the technical field of the invention can be defined as that of formulation of electrolytes, and more precisely as that of formulation of liquid electrolytes, i.e. solutions comprising a liquid solvent and a solute such as a conducting salt, where ionic conduction mechanisms are involved.
- Lithium batteries are generally formed by an electrochemical cell or a stack of electrochemical cells in a packaging. Each electrochemical cell is formed by a positive electrode and a negative electrode separated by an electrolyte.
- Two sorts of lithium batteries exist:
-
- the primary battery or metal lithium battery in which the negative electrode is composed of metallic lithium and
- the secondary battery in which the lithium remains in ionic state and which operates on the principle of insertion or extraction (or intercalation-deintercalation) of lithium in the active material of the positive electrode and of the negative electrode.
- Lithium batteries conventionally comprise current collectors ensuring flow of electrons, and therefore electronic conduction, in the external circuit of the lithium battery.
- Conventional lithium batteries further comprise a separator impregnated by the liquid electrolyte arranged between the positive and negative electrodes. The separator prevents any short-circuiting by preventing the positive electrode from coming into contact with the negative electrode.
- The electrolytes used in current lithium batteries are liquid electrolytes formed by a mixture of non-aqueous organic solvents, in most cases carbonates, in which a lithium salt is dissolved.
- Formulation of the electrolyte used plays an essential role as far as the performance of lithium batteries is concerned, in particular when the latter are used at very low or very high temperatures. The conductivity of the electrolyte in particular conditions the performances of the lithium battery as it acts on the mobility of the lithium ions in the electrolyte between the positive and negative electrodes.
- Other parameters are also to be taken into account in the choice of the type of electrolyte used in a lithium battery. These are in particular its thermal, chemical and electrochemical stability within the battery as well as economic, safety and environment-friendly criteria including in particular the toxicity of the liquid electrolyte.
- At the present time, lithium battery electrolytes operate over a small temperature range conventionally comprised between −10° C. and 50° C. without being damaged. Outside this temperature range, the electrolyte is impaired and results in a significant deterioration of the performances of the lithium battery.
- Numerous works have been described to propose extending the operating range of lithium batteries, in particular by modifying the formulation of the electrolyte.
- It has thus been shown that the use of solvents such as single esters, diesters or carbonates significantly improves the performances of the lithium battery at high or low temperature.
- The table represented below sets out the main solvents used in lithium batteries and their physical and chemical properties.
- The data set out in this table originate from the literature, in particular from the publications A. Collin, Solid State Ionics, 134, 159 (2000); Hayashi 1999: K. Hayashi, Y. Nemoto, S.-I. Tobishima, J.-I. Yamachi, Electrochimica Acta, 44, 2337 (1999); Smart 1999: M. C. Smart, B. V. Ratnakumar, S. Surampudi, J. Electrochem. Soc., 146 (2), 486 (1999) and Xu 2004: K. Xu, Chem.

- In particular, the document EP-A-980108 describes an electrolyte operating at low temperature having a base formed by a quaternary mixture containing only carbonate solvents, in particular the mixture EC/DMC/EMC/DEC. The use of this electrolyte in a lithium battery enables it to be used at a temperature of less than −20° C. while at the same time maintaining good performances at ambient temperature.
- Liquid electrolyte formulations used for primary lithium batteries, suitable in particular for a positive electrode made from manganese dioxide, of chemical formula MnO2, can furthermore be found at present on the market. For example, the liquid electrolyte marketed by NOVOLYTE or SAFT or MERCK under the trade name LP40 is constituted by a lithium salt LiPF6 at a concentration of 1 mol·L−1 dissolved in a binary mixture of non-aqueous organic solvents EC/DEC in a volume ratio respectively of 1/1.
- The object of the invention is to propose a new liquid electrolyte that is thermally stable over a wide temperature range and the use of the latter in a lithium battery. The object of the invention is in particular to provide a new liquid electrolyte having a high ionic conductivity at both high and low temperature, and that is suitable for both primary and secondary batteries.
- It is a further object of the invention to provide a liquid electrolyte that is able to activate and maintain the electrochemical properties of a lithium battery over a wide temperature range, in particular at a temperature lower than or equal to −20° C. and greater than or equal to 55° C.
- This object tends to be achieved by the appended claims
- Other advantages and features will become more clearly apparent from the following description of particular embodiments of the invention given for non-restrictive example purposes only and represented in the single appended drawing, in which:
-
FIG. 1 represents two plots of cycling, at a temperature of −20° C., of two LiFePO4//Cgr button cells, noted A2 and B2, produced from an electrolyte solution of formulation EC/DEC/THF/EMC (1/1/1/3)+LiClO4 1M (A2) according to a particular embodiment of the invention and EC/DEC/THF/EMC (1/1/1/3)+LiPF6 1M (B2). - A liquid electrolyte for a lithium battery comprises at least one lithium salt dissolved in a quaternary mixture of non-aqueous organic solvents.
- Four particular non-aqueous organic solvents, and also the nature of the lithium salt, were chosen to form the mixture of organic solvents of the liquid electrolyte for a lithium battery. What is meant by organic solvent is a non-aqueous solvent that is able to improve the ionic conduction of the electrolyte enhancing dissociation of the ions forming the lithium salt.
- The lithium salt is lithium perchlorate of chemical formula LiClO4.
- The quaternary mixture of organic solvents is formed by:
-
- ethylene carbonate, also known under the acronym EC,
- diethyl carbonate, also known under the acronym DEC,
- tetrahydrofurane, also known under the acronym THF and,
- ethyl methyl carbonate, also known under the acronym EMC.
- The organic solvents used to make the quaternary mixture of organic solvents are commercial organic solvents which can contain up to 1% of impurities. Organic solvents having a purity of more than 99.8% will nevertheless preferably be chosen.
- The sum of the respective volume percentages of ethylene carbonate, diethyl carbonate, tetrahydrofurane and ethyl methyl carbonate in the mixture is equal to 100%. The quaternary mixture of organic solvents therefore advantageously does not contain any other solvent(s) than the four solvents EC, DEC, THF and EMC. More particularly, it does not contain dimethyl carbonate (DMC) as in the examples of mixtures of solvents disclosed according to the prior art.
- As shown in the remainder of the description, specific selection of LiClO4 from the group of lithium salts in combination with the quaternary mixture EC/DEC/THF/EMC induces an unexpected effect on the thermal stability, at both high and low temperature, of the liquid electrolyte used in a lithium battery.
- In particular, it was surprisingly observed that the liquid electrolyte constituted solely by lithium perchlorate (LiClO4) dissolved in the quaternary mixture has physical and chemical properties that are particularly suitable for use in a lithium battery, in particular a primary lithium battery.
- According to a particular embodiment of the invention, the quaternary mixture of organic solvents preferably contains between:
-
- 0.5% and 33% by mass of ethylene carbonate (EC),

- In order to obtain an optimal dissociation of the ions constituting the LiClO4 salt in the quaternary mixture of organic solvents described above thereby enhancing transfer of the Li+ cation, a LiClO4 lithium salt concentration is advantageously chosen comprised between 0.1 mol·L−1 and 6 mol·L−1, and preferably equal to 1 mol·L−1±0.2.
- The particular formulation of the liquid electrolyte as described above presents physical and chemical properties that are particularly suitable for use in a lithium battery.
